July 5, 2024 – The union representing Canada’s border workers says members have voted 91 percent in favour of a new collective agreement. More than 9,000 Canada Border Services Agency workers were planning job action in June but the strike was averted when a tentative agreement was reached with the federal government. The vote solidifies the new collective agreement, preventing a strike that could have brought commercial border traffic to a standstill and caused major delays across the country.
